Yes you can record calls.
Once a call is connected, you have to click on the "Lock" icon to unlock the screen, then Options, and scroll down to Voice Record.
So its not as simple as other phones where there is button on the side that you can press.

i have had some good hands on with this phone. One thing the reviewer failed to mention was that the speaker quality on the voyager is far superior to the envy. I was thuroughly empressed with the clarity/fidelity from a phone.

I work for Verizon and this phone is great!!!! It does everything the I-Phone does and more. Nav, e-mail, send/recieve pic, full HTML browser etc... and the best thing. Internet and all that jazz is only 15 bucks a month (vcast)!!!!! How much do you pay for the data at ATT, i think like 20-40... that sux

Can't hardly wait!
I have sat here and read everyone's positive feedback on the Voyager and I must be completely honest as far as my opinion goes. This might sound crazy but I am not too thrilled that this device, like the ENV, has that dual hinge design. Remember the LG 9800? I have that now(I know I need the upgrade so bad) but honestly, I don't like the feel and hold of the phone. I guess that will come in time. I like the big phones though. The screen size is not as big as I thought on the inside but it's good even though I think they could have made it bigger. How much bigger? I don't know. Looking at these pics, they make it look huge but when I had the phone in my hand, it was not that huge. But still amazingly big and huge. Oh man, I still can't wait! Other than that, the features are insane! Thank god, you don't have to get some bullshit data plan for this like AT%T forces you to get some retarded $40 a month data plan. Well, have fun, and I hope everyone enjoys this phone.

Wait for next version
After playing with the phone for a few days I have to agree with the Phone Arena review. The touch screen is not very good unless you are touching an icon. It is virtually impossible to scroll down using the touch screen, you have to open the phone and use the down direction. Browsing the web is very slow, it doesn't seem like the phone is using EVDO even with full service. Hopefully that would be fixed when the phone is released. Not really much of an improvement from the EnV except for the touch screen, but even then you find yourself opening the phone and using the d-pad to do things and the browser doesn't seem to be operating at full speed.

i had no problems getting it to scroll properly. Once you get used to how it feels, it scrolls just as intended. The Iphone opened the gates to high priced non-PDA phones. The Voyager is a great step forward. It does almost everything (though why it still cant multitask and play music and do other things is a mystery).

Just spent some time playing with the voyager.

Major disappointement!

Sorry I waited for this, should have just purchased a Q or i760 last month.

Screen is weak, kind of squishy. Did not have a solid feel like the competition.

Speaker phone is weak compared to the Q/i760 and even the chocalate.

Speakerhone can't work when closed like the venus and i760.

Speakerphone only works when opened. Ackward to walk around with an open phone.

Speakerphone volume is hard/impossible to control. Only controls I could find are on the side and it's hard to get to the buttons while the phone is open.

Demo unit in the store the screen was all scratched/dorked up and it's only been out a day.

The touch on the touch screen was awful. Very hard to get it to work. Blech was my overall impression of the interface.

Scrolling between pictures was not seemless, still a pause as it figured out how to display each picture.

Only played with it a few minutes. First day of release, the store was fairly busy but no one seemed to care about the venus/voyager but me.

If this is Verizon's answer to the iphone, houston we have a problem.....
